She is preceded in death by her parents, James Carroll and Margaret Callen Carroll; and infant daughter, Collette. Mrs. Wright is survived by her husband of more than 62 years, Gentry Wright; brother, Keith James Carroll of Stockport, England; son, James Keith Wright of Hampstead North Carolina; daughter, Chantal Parker of Cartersville Georgia; and daughter and son-in-law, Michelle Flannery-Alderman and John Alderman of Walnut Grove, Georgia. She is also survived by grandchildren, Kathleen McNeil of North Carolina; Katie Mae Poore of Woodstock and Gentry Parker of Cartersville. She is also survived by two great-grandchildren. Kathleen grew up in Stockport, England during WWII, singing and dancing onstage in her youth. As a young teen she served in the British ARP (Air Raid Precaution), riding her bike through the neighborhood to warn of air raids, get people indoors, and notify for blackouts. One time an incendiary bomb landed only a few feet behind her as she pedaled up Naples Road, spreading flames and almost burning an elderly neighbor. Kathleen served in the British Land Army as a young adult, working on an area dairy farm. Kathleen and Gentry met at Christmas time in 1947, when Gentry, serving in the American Army Occupation of Germany, went to Stockport to be best man at the wedding of one of Kathleen’s friends. It was love at first sight, and they wed on June 19, 1948. Thereafter, Kathleen was frequently and fondly referred to as Gentry’s WWII souvenir. Kathleen overcame many hardships in her life, including severe poverty, and the loss of a child, but never quite overcame basic fears developed as a child being raised in a war-torn nation. In 1967, Kathleen received a letter from the Immigration and Naturalization Service stating that she might be deported because she had not completed her annual registration as a military spouse. Kathleen wrote them back stating that while her husband was deployed overseas in Vietnam, she was busy raising a family, working a full time job, and maintaining the home. She added that she was so busy, she’d forgotten she wasn’t an American citizen. She became a naturalized citizen of this country in 1968. Wed, 01 Sep 2010 13:18:05 CDT 154d7da9e669c75ee317d46614381dd8
